Explanation

Schedule G, Part I, Line 2b(v) PAYMENT OF FUNDRAISING EXPENSES

THE AGREEMENTS HSUS ENTERED INTO WITH NATIONAL OUTDOOR SPORTS AND DONOR SERVICES GROUP ALLOWED FOR THE PAYMENT OF FUNDRAISING EXPENSES (SUCH AS PRINTING, PAPER, POSTAGE, ENVELOPES AND MAILING LIST RENTAL) IN ADDITIONAL TO THE PAYMENT OF FEES FOR PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING SERVICES. HSUS PAID OUT $8,559,757 TO NATIONAL OUTDOOR SPORTS AND $50,620 TO DONOR SERVICES GROUP FOR FUNDRAISING EXPENSES. NATIONAL OUTDOOR SPORTS AND DONOR SERVICES GROUP PROVIDE DETAILS ON THEIR INVOICES WHICH ALLOW HSUS TO IDENTIFY WHICH COSTS ARE FOR PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING AND WHICH COSTS ARE RELATED TO GENERAL FUNDRAISING EXPENSES. IN ADDITION TO THE ORGANIZATIONS WHICH APPEAR ON SCHEDULE G, PART I; HSUS ENTERED INTO ARRANGEMENTS WITH TWO FUNDRAISING VENDORS WHERE THE ORGANIZATION MADE PAYMENTS EXCLUSIVELY FOR FUNDRAISING EXPENSES BUT NOT FOR PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING SERVICES. ONE VENDOR HANDLES THE MAILING AND PROCESSING OF DIRECT MAIL PIECES, BUT DOES NOT ASSIST WITH THE CREATION OR PREPARATION OF THE DIRECT MAIL LETTERS. NOR IS THIS VENDOR INVOLVED IN ANY OTHER PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING ACTIVITY. A SECOND VENDOR HANDLES THE PURCHASING AND SCHEDULING OF MEDIA SPACE FOR TELEVISION COMMERCIALS CREATED BY THE HSUS. THIS VENDOR IS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES INCLUDING THE CREATION OR PREPARATION OF THE TELEVISION COMMERCIALS.

Schedule G, Part I GENERAL EXPLANATION:

THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES (HSUS) AND ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES RELY ON A SUBSTANTIAL AND LONGSTANDING PROGRAM OF DIRECT MAIL FUNDRAISING TO SUPPORT THE FULL RANGE OF ACTIVITIES THEY UNDERTAKE ON BEHALF OF ANIMALS, WHETHER IT INVOLVES HANDS-ON CARE, POLICY WORK, SCIENTIFIC OR TECHNICAL ANALYSIS, HUMANE EDUCATION, LITIGATION, PUBLICATION, OR COMMUNICATION. DIRECT MAIL HAS PLAYED A FUNDAMENTAL ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE HSUS, AND IT REMAINS CRUCIAL TO THE ORGANIZATIONS' SUCCESS IN HELPING ANIMALS. AS AN EDUCATIONAL TOOL THAT DESCRIBES THE ORGANIZATIONS' NUMEROUS PROGRAMS AND CAMPAIGNS TO HELP ANIMALS, DIRECT MAIL FUNDRAISING HELPS TO CREATE GREATER AWARENESS OF THE ORGANIZATIONS' CAMPAIGNS AND THE ORGANIZATIONS' CONCERNS, AND HAS ALLOWED US TO BUILD A CONSTITUENCY OF SUPPORTERS UNMATCHED IN THE HUMANE FIELD, WITH TREMENDOUS SOCIAL, POLITICAL, AND PRACTICAL BENEFITS TO THE ORGANIZATIONS' WORK. TO COMPLEMENT DIRECT MAIL, THE HSUS RELIES ON LARGER INDIVIDUAL GIFTS SOLICITED BY REGIONAL FUNDRAISERS, PLANNED GIVING, FOUNDATION GRANTS, TELEPHONE SOLICITATION, WORKPLACE GIVING, ONLINE SOLICITATION, BEQUESTS, AND DIRECT RESPONSE TELEVISION ADVERTISEMENTS. TOGETHER, THESE METHODS FORM THE BASIS OF A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO SECURING THE FUNDS AND THE CONSTITUENCY NECESSARY TO MEET OUR URGENT AND LONG TERM ANIMAL WELFARE GOALS.

COMPANION ANIMALS THE HSUS IS COMMITTED TO CREATING A BETTER, KINDER WORLD FOR CATS, DOGS AND OTHER ANIMAL COMPANIONS. THE COMPANION ANIMALS SECTION CONDUCTS A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS AIMED AT REDUCING EUTHANASIA OF HEALTHY AND TREATABLE ANIMALS, PROMOTES THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOVING, REWARDING, AND LASTING COMPANION ANIMAL-HUMAN BONDS, AND WORKS WITH SHELTERS AND RESCUE GROUPS TO PREVENT ANIMAL SUFFERING WHEN THAT BOND BREAKS. THE SECTION INTERACTS WITH THE PUBLIC ON ISSUES INCLUDING SPAYING AND NEUTERING, TETHERING OF DOGS, GREYHOUND RACING, MICRO-CHIPPING, AND THE MANAGEMENT OF OUTDOOR CATS, AND WORKS TO PROVIDE COMMUNITIES, SHELTERS, AND PET OWNERS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS THEY NEED TO ELIMINATE ANIMAL CRUELTY, END PET OVERPOPULATION, AND PROVIDE SAFE, HAPPY HOMES FOR COMPANION ANIMALS. IN 2014, OUR GROUNDBREAKING PETS FOR LIFE PROGRAM BROUGHT VITAL PET CARE SERVICES TO 18,000 PETS, PROVIDING OVER 12,000 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES IN CHICAGO, PHILADELPHIA, ATLANTA, AND LOS ANGELES. THE PETS FOR LIFE TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP PROGRAM, FUNDED BY PETSMART CHARITIES AND SEVERAL KEY DONORS, EXPANDED TO 12 NEW CITIES, SERVING 12,000 PETS AND PERFORMING 7,500 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES. PETS FOR LIFE IS NOW IN 30 COMMUNITIES NATIONWIDE (4 DIRECT CARE AND 26 MENTORSHIP). THE SHELTER PET PROJECT, A COLLABORATION OF THE HSUS, THE AD COUNCIL, AND MADDIE'S FUND, SPONSORS GAME-CHANGING TELEVISION, PRINT, RADIO, ONLINE, AND OUTDOOR ADVERTISEMENTS TO PROMOTE ADOPTION OF SHELTER PETS NATIONWIDE AND TO REDUCE THE EUTHANASIA OF HEALTHY ANIMALS. IN 2014, THE SHELTER PET PROJECT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS (PSA'S) RAN MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION TIMES IN PRINT, RADIO, TELEVISION, AND OUT-OF-HOME ADVERTISING. THE TOTAL DONATED REVENUE WAS $43,874,096. SINCE THE CAMPAIGN'S LAUNCH IN 2009, THE PSAS HAVE RUN OVER 4.2 MILLION TIMES ($224 MILLION IN FREE ADVERTISING), AND THE CAMPAIGN IS EXPECTED TO GENERATE AN ADDITIONAL $40 MILLION IN FUTURE ADVERTISING IN 2015. SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 2009, THE SHELTER PET PROJECT HAS WORKED TO LIFT PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF ANIMAL SHELTERS AND SHELTER PETS, AND HAS BEEN PART OF DRIVING DOWN THE NUMBER OF PETS WHO LOSE THEIR LIVES IN SHELTERS BY 12 PERCENT. SOME 3 TO 4 MILLION SHELTER PETS GET ADOPTED EACH YEAR, WHICH MEANS THAT JUST 35 PERCENT OF DOGS AND 43 PERCENT OF CATS IN AMERICAN HOMES WERE ADOPTED FROM SHELTERS OR RESCUE GROUPS. BUT 2.4 MILLION HEALTHY OR TREATABLE PETS STILL NEED OUR HELP TO FIND A HOME EACH YEAR. IN 2014, THE SHELTER PET PROJECT CAMPAIGN RANKED 14TH IN DONATED MEDIA AMONG CURRENT AD COUNCIL CAMPAIGNS. THE CAMPAIGN RELEASED NEW PSA'S AND RECEIVED ADDITIONAL MEDIA AND VIDEO SUPPORT FROM BELLAMY YOUNG, BEST KNOWN FOR HER ROLE AS FIRST LADY MELODY GRANT IN THE ABC DRAMA SERIES "SCANDAL," AND LANCE BASS. WORLD SPAY DAY 2014, ORGANIZED BY THE HSUS AND HUMANE SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL, TOOK PLACE IN 41 COUNTRIES AND MORE THAN 500 CITIES WORLDWIDE. DURING THIS MILESTONE 20TH ANNUAL WORLD SPAY DAY, NEARLY 70,000 CATS, DOGS AND OTHER COMPANION ANIMALS WERE REPORTED SPAYED OR NEUTERED. THE HSUS DISBURSED $50,000 IN GRANTS TO BENEFIT PARTICIPATING SHELTERS AND RESCUE GROUPS. IN 2014, THE SECTION HELPED TO CLOSE 14 CARBON MONOXIDE GAS CHAMBERS IN SIX STATES AND ONE CANADIAN PROVINCE. SOUTH DAKOTA BECAME THE 50TH STATE TO ADOPT FELONY-LEVEL PENALTIES FOR ANIMAL CRUELTY, CAPPING THE HSUS'S 25-YEAR LONG CAMPAIGN TO ESTABLISH STRONG PENALTIES FOR MALICIOUS CRUELTY IN EVERY STATE. FINALLY, THE SECTION PLAYED A LEADING ROLE IN OPPOSING STATEWIDE BREED-SPECIFIC LEGISLATION IN MARYLAND. WHILE MUCH OF THE HSUS'S WORK IS TARGETED AT RESOLVING THE UNDERLYING CAUSES OF PET HOMELESSNESS AND SUFFERING, THE ORGANIZATION ALSO SEEKS TO HELP SHELTERS IMPROVE THEIR WORK FOR ANIMALS AND SAVE LIVES OF PETS THAT DO LOSE THEIR HOMES, FOR WHATEVER REASON. THE HSUS'S SHELTER AND RESCUE SERVICES TEAM PROVIDED EXPERT ADVICE, GUIDANCE AND TRAINING ON OPERATIONS, STANDARDS, AND BEST PRACTICES TO SHELTERS AND RESCUE GROUPS ACROSS THE NATION. ANIMAL SHELTERING MAGAZINE OFFERS BIMONTHLY, FULL-COLOR, AND BROAD-REACHING COVERAGE OF THE LATEST LOCAL, NATIONAL, AND GLOBAL NEWS ABOUT ANIMALS; ANALYSIS OF TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS IN THE FIELD OF ANIMAL SHELTERING; INSPIRATION AND ADVICE FROM LEADERS IN THE FIELD; AND INFORMATION ON THE LATEST TRAINING AND NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES. THE MAGAZINE IS SENT TO THOUSANDS OF CONCERNED INDIVIDUALS, FROM HUMANE SOCIETY DIRECTORS AND CITY ANIMAL CONTROL MANAGERS TO RESCUERS, KENNEL STAFF, FERAL CAT CARETAKERS, VOLUNTEERS, AND PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS, BREED RESCUERS, WILDLIFE REHABILITATION SPECIALISTS, VETERINARIANS, AND OTHERS. THE HSUS'S WEBSITE ANIMALSHELTERING.ORG REMAINS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE ONLINE RESOURCE FOR THOSE IN THE ANIMAL WELFARE FIELD, WITH MORE THAN 563,065 VISITS (367,171 UNIQUE VISITORS) IN 2014. THE SITE FEATURES A COMPREHENSIVE RESOURCE LIBRARY OF ARTICLES, GUIDELINES, AND TRAINING INFORMATION ON TOPICS FROM ADOPTION TO ZOONOTIC DISEASE CONTROL; THE MOST POPULAR JOB SEARCH ENGINE FOR THE FIELD WITH LISTINGS OF AVAILABLE POSITIONS; A SHARED TRAINING AND EVENTS CALENDAR FOR THE HUMANE MOVEMENT; AN ARCHIVE OF BACK ISSUES OF ANIMAL SHELTERING MAGAZINE; AND MORE. THE FOCUS OF THE CAT PROTECTION AND POLICY PROGRAM IS TO ELEVATE THE STATUS AND IMPROVE THE WELFARE OF CATS. THROUGH EFFORTS TO ENSURE HUMANE ACQUISITION OF CATS, KEEP CATS IN LOVING HOMES, AND HUMANELY MANAGE OUTDOOR CAT POPULATIONS, THE PROGRAM WORKS TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF UNOWNED CATS AND INCREASE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR AMERICA'S TOP COMPANION.

CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4A (2 OF 5) ANIMAL PROTECTION LITIGATION THE HSUS'S ANIMAL PROTECTION LITIGATION (APL) SECTION CARRIES OUT PRECEDENT-SETTING LEGAL WORK ON BEHALF OF ANIMALS IN STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS AROUND THE COUNTRY, RESEARCHING, PREPARING, AND PROSECUTING ANIMAL PROTECTION LAWSUITS, MAINLY IN AREAS COVERED BY FIVE CORE LITIGATION GROUPS: FARM ANIMALS, COMPANION ANIMALS AND ANIMAL CRUELTY, WILDLIFE, LEGISLATION, AND INTERNATIONAL LAW. SINCE 2005, APL HAS FILED MORE THAN 140 LEGAL ACTIONS; SECURED 125 FAVORABLE RULINGS FOR ANIMALS IN STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS; AND WON MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN JUDGMENTS, SETTLEMENTS, AND ATTORNEYS' FEES FROM A RANGE OF PARTIES. APL ALSO DEVOTES ENERGY AND RESOURCES TO DEFEND AGAINST LAWSUITS SEEKING TO OVERTURN LEGISLATIVE GAINS FOR ANIMALS SECURED BY THE HSUS AND OTHER GROUPS. APL LEVERAGES THE IMPACT OF ITS WORK BY COOPERATING CLOSELY WITH PRO BONO LAWYERS THROUGHOUT THE NATION. IN 2014, APL WON A NUMBER OF SIGNIFICANT CASES. ITS SUCCESSES FOR MARINE SPECIES INCLUDED CONTRIBUTING BRIEFING AND CRITICAL EVIDENCE IN SUPPORT OF TWO INTERNATIONAL CASES OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. IN ONE, THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION'S APPELLATE BODY UPHELD THE EUROPEAN UNION'S RIGHT TO BAN TRADE IN COMMERCIAL SEAL PRODUCTS. IN THE OTHER, THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE ISSUED A LANDMARK RULING THAT JAPAN'S WHALING ACTIVITIES VIOLATE THE INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION FOR THE REGULATION OF WHALING'S MORATORIUM ON COMMERCIAL HUNTING. APL ALSO WON A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING APPROVAL OF THE NAVY'S "LOW FREQUENCY ACTIVE" SONAR TRAINING PROGRAM IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN AND SECURED TWO LEGAL VICTORIES ON BEHALF OF SHARKS. IN THE FIRST, A FEDERAL COURT DISMISSED A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING CALIFORNIA'S SHARK FIN LAW. IN THE SECOND, THE HSUS WON ITS LAWSUIT CHALLENGING THE NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE'S DENIAL OF A PETITION TO LIST PORBEAGLE SHARKS AS ENDANGERED UNDER THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT. IN NOVEMBER, THE HSUS REACHED A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE TO EXPAND CRITICAL HABITAT PROTECTIONS FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC RIGHT WHALE -- ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST ENDANGERED WHALES. IN 2009, THE HSUS PETITIONED THE AGENCY TO EXPAND HABITAT PROTECTIONS TO INCLUDE ALL THE WHALES' NURSERY AND BREEDING AND FEEDING GROUNDS. APL'S 2014 VICTORIES IN THE ARENA OF FARM ANIMAL WELFARE WERE ALSO IMPORTANT. IN CALIFORNIA, A FEDERAL COURT GRANTED THE HSUS'S MOTION TO DISMISS A LAWSUIT BY ATTORNEYS GENERAL FROM STATES THAT CHALLENGED AB 1437, A LAW THAT BANS THE SALE OF EGGS FROM BATTERY CAGES IN CALIFORNIA. APL WON ITS LAWSUIT ON BEHALF OF RURAL RESIDENTS IN MINNESOTA AGAINST A GIANT GESTATION CRATE FACILITY AND A STATE AGENCY, IN A CASE INVOLVING MASSIVE ANIMAL WASTE SPILLS. HSUS ATTORNEYS ALSO JOINED WITH SMALL FARMERS AND THE UNITED FARM WORKERS TO DEFEAT A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING THE USDA'S COUNTRY-OF-ORIGIN LABELING RULE WHICH REQUIRES INFORMATION LABELING SO THAT CONSUMERS CAN TELL WHERE THEIR FOOD WAS PRODUCED. FINALLY, THE HSUS WON A LAWSUIT TO COMPEL A PUBLIC UNIVERSITY TO TURN OVER DOCUMENTS CONCERNING ILLEGAL LOBBYING AGAINST PROPOSITION 2 IN CALIFORNIA. IN THE WILDLIFE ARENA, THE HSUS WON LAWSUITS CHALLENGING TWO REGULATIONS OF THE U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE (USFWS) TO REMOVE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT PROTECTIONS FOR WOLVES IN WYOMING AND THE GREAT LAKES, AND CONVINCED THE USFWS TO GRANT ITS LEGAL PETITION TO LIST AFRICAN LIONS AS THREATENED UNDER THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT. APL PERSUADED THE U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT TO UPHOLD OHIO'S DANGEROUS WILD ANIMALS AND RESTRICTED SNAKES ACT, AND SUCCESSFULLY PETITIONED FEDERAL AUTHORITIES TO REVOKE THE EXHIBITOR LICENSE OF A ROADSIDE ZOO IN MISSISSIPPI. IN ADDITION, APL HELPED THE CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD WIN DISMISSAL OF A CONSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGE TO ITS FUR SALES BAN. IN ITS WORK FOR COMPANION ANIMALS, APL PREVAILED IN A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING NEW USDA REGULATIONS EXPANDING THE NUMBER OF DOGS PROTECTED BY THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT, AND REGULATING INTERNET SALES OF PUPPY MILL DOGS. THE U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE D. C. CIRCUIT RULED IN THE HSUS'S FAVOR IN A MAJOR FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT CASE, HOLDING THAT THE USDA MUST RELEASE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN RELICENSING APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED BY COMMERCIAL DOG BREEDERS. IN ADDITION, THE MASSACHUSETTS SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT HELD, CONSISTENT WITH AN AMICUS BRIEF SUBMITTED BY THE HSUS, THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL MAY ENTER PRIVATE PROPERTY TO ASSIST ANIMALS IN URGENT NEED OF CARE, WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A WARRANT. APL ALSO SUBMITTED AN AMICUS BRIEF TO THE MONTANA SUPREME COURT, WHICH UPHELD THE CRUELTY CONVICTION OF A NOTORIOUS MALAMUTE BREEDER. FINALLY, APL HELPED TO CONVINCE THE FIFTH CIRCUIT TO REINSTATE THE 2010 ANIMAL CRUSH VIDEO PROHIBITION ACT AFTER A LOWER COURT DECLARED IT IN VIOLATION OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT. IN SEVERAL KEY CASES, APL WORKED WITH THE HSUS INVESTIGATIONS DEPARTMENT TO EXPOSE ANIMAL CRUELTY AND PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION OF FINDINGS TO STATE AND FEDERAL AUTHORITIES. THE LEGISLATIVE GROUP IN APL HELPED TO DRAFT MORE THAN 100 NEW STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO PROTECT ANIMALS FROM CRUELTY AND ABUSE IN 2014. THESE INCLUDED BILLS TO END THE IVORY TRADE, BAN LEAD AMMUNITION, STOP CRUEL FARM ANIMAL CONFINEMENT PRACTICES, AND AID IN MOVING PET STORES TOWARDS MORE HUMANE BUSINESS MODELS. THE GROUP ALSO HELPED DEFEND AGAINST OVER A DOZEN "AG-GAG" BILLS, AND OVERSAW THE DEVELOPMENT AND FILING OF THREE BALLOT MEASURES AND REFERENDA IN MAINE AND MICHIGAN.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4A (3 OF 5) CAMPAIGNS THE HSUS PURSUES A NUMBER OF HIGH-PRIORITY ISSUES THROUGH A CAMPAIGNS SECTION THAT FOCUSES EXTRA ATTENTION AND RESOURCES ON DYNAMIC PROGRESS. IN 2014, THE CAMPAIGNS SECTION WORKED ON FARM ANIMAL PROTECTION, RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND OUTREACH, AND PUPPY MILLS. FARM ANIMAL PROTECTION THE FARM ANIMAL PROTECTION CAMPAIGN WORKS WITH CONSUMERS, CORPORATIONS, AND POLICY MAKERS TO SPUR REFORM IN THE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS RAISED FOR FOOD. THE HSUS SUPPORTS HUMANE FARMERS AND HUMANE, SUSTAINABLE FARMING PRACTICES, AND ENCOURAGES THE PUBLIC TO FOLLOW THE 3 RS, I.E., REDUCTION IN CONSUMPTION OF ANIMAL PRODUCTS; REFINEMENT, BY WORKING TO ACHIEVE REFORMS IN THE WAYS IN WHICH ANIMALS ARE RAISED AND TREATED IN THE AGRIBUSINESS SECTOR, AND BY ENCOURAGING CONSUMERS TO CHOOSE PRODUCTS NOT DERIVED FROM FACTORY FARMING; AND REPLACEMENT, THE INCORPORATION OF PLANT FOODS INTO THE DIET. 2014 ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDED SUCCESS IN PERSUADING EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS, RESTAURANT CHAINS, AND CORPORATIONS TO IMPROVE ANIMAL WELFARE PURCHASING POLICIES IN RELATION TO CRATE-FREE PORK, CAGE-FREE EGGS, AND OTHER ANIMAL PRODUCTS. FOLLOWING AN 18-MONTH HSUS CAMPAIGN, TYSON FOODS REVERSED ITS POSITION ON GESTATION CRATES BY ADVISING ITS CONTRACT FARMERS THAT "FUTURE SOW HOUSING" SHOULD ALLOW ANIMALS TO TURN AROUND AND ENGAGE IN OTHER BASIC BEHAVIORS PREVENTED BY CRATE CONFINEMENT. TYSON'S ANNOUNCEMENT CAME JUST DAYS AFTER THE HSUS PREVAILED IN ITS EFFORTS TO PERSUADE SMITHFIELD FOODS - THE WORLD'S LARGEST PORK PRODUCER - TO EXTEND ITS GROUP HOUSING POLICY TO ITS CONTRACTORS, A MOVE THAT WILL POSITIVELY AFFECT SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND PIGS. MONTHS LATER, CARGILL - THE LARGEST PRIVATE CORPORATION IN THE UNITED STATES - ANNOUNCED WITH THE HSUS THAT IT WOULD PHASE OUT GESTATION CRATES FROM ITS SUPPLY CHAIN. CLEMONS FOOD GROUP (HATFIELD PORK) MADE A SIMILAR ANNOUNCEMENT WITH THE HSUS. THE HSUS ALSO HELPED WENDY'S, SAFEWAY, SUPERVALU, DUNKIN DONUTS, DENNY'S, JACK IN THE BOX, AND OTHER COMPANIES STRENGTHEN THEIR GESTATION CRATE POLICIES. AT THE HSUS'S URGING, STARBUCKS MADE A GROUNDBREAKING ANNOUNCEMENT THAT IT WOULD IMPLEMENT A NORTH AMERICAN CAGE-FREE EGG POLICY. THE COMPANY PLEDGED TO PHASE OUT GESTATION CRATES FOR PIGS AND CAGES FOR CHICKENS, ELIMINATE THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL FAST-GROWING PRACTICES THAT CAUSE CHICKENS TO SUFFER CHRONIC PAIN, END THE DEHORNING, TAIL DOCKING, AND CASTRATION OF ANIMALS WITHOUT ANESTHESIA, AND MOVE AWAY FROM THE MOST INHUMANE CHICKEN SLAUGHTER PRACTICES. THE HSUS ALSO HELPED PERSUADE THE LARGEST FOOD MANUFACTURER IN THE WORLD, NESTLE, TO ANNOUNCE A SIMILAR POLICY TO ELIMINATE A RANGE OF CRUEL FACTORY FARMING PRACTICES, INCLUDING CAGES FOR LAYING HENS, TAIL-CUTTING OF DAIRY COWS, CASTRATION, AND FORCED RAPID GROWTH OF POULTRY. THE HSUS WORKED WITH UNILEVER TO ANNOUNCE ITS INTENTION TO BE THE FIRST MAJOR EGG USER TO SEEK ALTERNATIVES TO THE STANDARD INDUSTRY PRACTICE OF KILLING MALE CHICKS. THE SECTION SUCCESSFULLY OPPOSED ELEVEN "AG-GAG BILLS" DESIGNED TO SQUELCH WHISTLEBLOWING CONCERNING FACTORY FARMING IN A NUMBER OF STATES, AND SUPPORTED PASSAGE OF RHODE ISLAND'S PROHIBITION OF GESTATION CRATE CONFINEMENT OF PIGS. AN HSUS INVESTIGATION AT THE CATELLI BROS. CALF SLAUGHTER PLANT, IN MONMOUTH COUNTY, NEW JERSEY, RESULTED IN A TWO-WEEK SHUTDOWN, AFTER AN HSUS UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATOR DOCUMENTED CRUELTIES THAT INCLUDED CALVES BEING FORCED TO RISE TO THEIR FEET BY MEN WHO WRAPPED THE CALVES' TAILS AROUND THEIR HANDS - LIFTING THE ENTIRE WEIGHT OF THE CALF BY THIS APPENDAGE. ONE CALF WITH A BROKEN LEG WAS DRAGGED BY A CHAIN AROUND HIS NECK, WHILE OTHER CALVES WERE STRUCK, KICKED, PULLED BY THEIR EARS, AND SPRAYED WITH WATER. THE SECTION ALSO WORKED IN SUPPORT OF MEATLESS MONDAY, HELPING SCHOOL DISTRICTS FROM COAST TO COAST, INCLUDING SOME OF THE NATION'S LARGEST, IMPLEMENT "MEATLESS MONDAY" PROGRAMS. THAT LIST INCLUDES MANY BIG CITIES, AS WELL AS KNOWLEDGE UNIVERSE, THE LARGEST PROVIDER OF CHILDCARE IN THE UNITED STATES, WITH MORE THAN 2,000 LOCATIONS GLOBALLY. THE HSUS ALSO PARTNERED WITH ARAMARK, THE LARGEST U.S.-BASED FOOD SERVICE COMPANY, TO LAUNCH PERHAPS THE LARGEST CAMPAIGN OF ANY COMPANY IN ITS SECTOR CENTERED ON REPLACING MEAT WITH PLANT-BASED FOODS.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4A (4 OF 5) RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND OUTREACH THE SECTION SEEKS TO AMPLIFY THE VOICES OF FARMERS WHO REJECT INHUMANE CONFINEMENT PRACTICES AND WANT TO PRESERVE FAMILY FARMS, AND PARTNERS WITH FARMERS TO CONFRONT THREATS AND ACTIVITIES THAT UNDERMINE THE FAMILY FARM IN AMERICA. THROUGHOUT 2014, THE HSUS STRENGTHENED ITS COLLABORATION WITH FARMERS COMMITTED TO HUMANE AND SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND THE STRONGEST STANDARDS OF ANIMAL CARE. THE HSUS WORKED WITH RANK-AND-FILE FARMERS TO CREATE AGRICULTURAL COUNCILS IN MISSOURI, INDIANA, NORTH CAROLINA, WISCONSIN, MICHIGAN, AND OKLAHOMA, WHILE MAINTAINING ITS COUNCILS IN COLORADO, IOWA, NEBRASKA, AND OHIO. THE HSUS ALSO PARTNERED WITH FARMERS ON LAWSUITS TO CHALLENGE THE MISUSE OF FUNDS IN THE BEEF AND PORK CHECK-OFF PROGRAMS FOR LOBBYING ACTIVITIES THAT UNDERMINE THE FAMILY FARM IN AMERICA. RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND OUTREACH CONDUCTED WORKSHOPS IN INDIANA, OHIO, NEBRASKA, AND NORTH CAROLINA FOR CONSUMERS AND LOCAL LEADERS, EXPLAINING THE REAL ECONOMIC COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH FACTORY FARMS AND THE ECONOMIC BENEFIT OF TRADITIONAL AGRICULTURE TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES. IN COLORADO, NEBRASKA, AND OHIO, RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND OUTREACH HOSTED FARM TOURS EDUCATING PEOPLE ON HIGHER ANIMAL WELFARE PRACTICES AND FAMILY FARMS. THE SECTION JOINED AN ALLIANCE IN IOWA WITH 30 OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO OPPOSE THE EXPANSION OF CONFINED ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS (CAFOS). THE PROGRAM ALSO HELPED TO CONNECT FAMILY FARMERS AND RANCHERS WHO ARE GOOD STEWARDS OF THEIR ANIMALS AND THE LAND TO GROCERY STORES AND RESTAURANTS IN OHIO, NEBRASKA, COLORADO, AND NORTH CAROLINA, AND WORKED DIRECTLY WITH FARMERS IN NEBRASKA, IOWA, AND MINNESOTA TO HELP THEM TRANSITION TO CERTIFIED HIGHER ANIMAL WELFARE PRACTICES. FINALLY, THE SECTION PROMOTED THE GLOBAL ANIMAL PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM TO PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS NATIONALLY THROUGH WORKSHOPS AND SOCIAL MEDIA, IMPACTING OVER 147 MILLION ANIMALS. PUPPY MILLS CAMPAIGN THE PUPPY MILLS CAMPAIGN EDUCATES THE PUBLIC ABOUT HOW TO OBTAIN DOGS AS PETS WITHOUT SUPPORTING THE PUPPY MILL INDUSTRY, WHILE SEEKING TO HIGHLIGHT THE PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH-VOLUME, SUBSTANDARD COMMERCIAL DOG BREEDING OPERATIONS. THE SECTION SUPPORTS RESPONSIBLE DOG BREEDERS BY GIVING INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC ON HOW TO SELECT A BREEDER, AND BY WORKING WITH A BREEDERS' ADVISORY AND RESOURCE COUNCIL (BARC). THE CAMPAIGN CELEBRATED ITS 2014 PUPPY MILL ACTION WEEK NATIONWIDE DURING THE WEEK OF MOTHER'S DAY, BY RELEASING 101 PUPPY MILLS, A REPORT DOCUMENTING SPECIFIC PROBLEMS AT 101 PUPPY MILLS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, AND GIVING UPDATES ON THE 100 DEALERS LISTED IN THE 2013 REPORT. THE REPORT GENERATED DOZENS OF MEDIA ARTICLES, AND MANY OF THE BREEDERS LISTED IN THE REPORT HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN. IN ADDITION, ADVOCATES USED THE INFORMATION IN THE REPORT TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT BREEDERS SELLING TO PET STORES IN THEIR TOWNS, AND MANY HELPED PASS NEW LOCAL ORDINANCES THAT BAN THE SALE OF PUPPIES. THE BIGGEST LOCALITY TO PASS SUCH A LAW WAS THE CITY OF CHICAGO, WHICH PASSED A CITY-WIDE BAN ON THE SALE OF PUPPIES IN PET STORES. THE BAN WAS THEN PASSED IN COOKE COUNTY, ILLINOIS, ONE OF THE LARGEST COUNTIES IN THE U.S. THE CAMPAIGN SUPPORTED 10 SUCCESSFUL BILLS CRACKING DOWN ON PUPPY MILLS IN 2014, INCLUDING LEGISLATION IN MINNESOTA (WHICH HAS SOME OF THE LARGEST PUPPY MILLS IN THE COUNTRY), WHICH WILL NOW REQUIRE LICENSING AND INSPECTION; AND A GROUNDBREAKING LAW IN CONNECTICUT THAT PROHIBITS PET STORES FROM BUYING FROM BREEDERS WITH SOME OF THE WORST ANIMAL WELFARE ACT VIOLATIONS. THE PUPPY MILLS CAMPAIGN HELPS TO RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATE PROBLEM PUPPY MILLS, OFTEN LEADING TO PUPPY MILL CLOSURES AND RESCUES. THROUGH OUR BREEDER SURRENDER FUND, THE CAMPAIGN ASSISTS SHELTERS IN CARING FOR DOGS DISCARDED FROM PUPPY MILLS THAT ARE CLOSING DOWN. THE HSUS CONDUCTED AN UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATION SHOWING PUPPY MILL DOGS BEING SOLD AT VIRGINIA PET STORES, AT LEAST ONE OF WHICH HAS SUBSEQUENTLY CLOSED ITS DOORS. IN ADDITION, THE CAMPAIGN ASSISTED IN CONVERTING SIX PET STORES THAT HAD PREVIOUSLY SOLD PUPPIES TO A HUMANE MODEL THAT OFFERS DOGS AND PUPPIES FROM LOCAL SHELTERS INSTEAD, WHICH RESULTED IN ALMOST 2,000 SHELTER DOGS SAVED. FEDERAL AFFAIRS THE HSUS FEDERAL AFFAIRS SECTION FOCUSES ON SUPPORT AND PASSAGE OF FEDERAL ANIMAL PROTECTION LEGISLATION AND REGULATION. IN 2014, THE SECTION PLAYED A CRUCIAL ROLE IN SECURING LANGUAGE IN THE FARM BILL MAKING IT A FEDERAL CRIME TO KNOWINGLY ATTEND OR BRING A CHILD TO AN ORGANIZED ANIMAL FIGHT AND STRIKING A PROVISION (KNOWN AS THE "KING AMENDMENT") THAT WOULD NEGATE STATE LAWS PROTECTING FARM ANIMALS. THIS SECTION HELPED PASS LANGUAGE IN THE FY15 NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION ACT AUTHORIZING THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE TO PARTNER WITH CIVILIAN LAW ENFORCEMENT TO COMBAT WILDLIFE TRAFFICKING. FEDERAL AFFAIRS HELPED SECURE LANGUAGE IN THE FY15 OMNIBUS TO FIGHT WILDLIFE TRAFFICKING ($55 MILLION); TO BAR THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE (USDA) FROM FUNDING INSPECTIONS AT HORSE SLAUGHTER PLANTS, EFFECTIVELY MAKING IT ILLEGAL TO SLAUGHTER HORSES FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION IN THIS COUNTRY; TO PRIORITIZE FEDERAL FUNDING FOR NON-ANIMAL RESEARCH METHODS IN THE BRAIN INITIATIVE AND THROUGH THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR ADVANCING TRANSLATIONAL SCIENCES; TO ENCOURAGE THE BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT TO CONSIDER NEW, MORE HUMANE METHODS OF WILD HORSE POPULATION MANAGEMENT (INCLUDING $1 MILLION FOR A STUDY SO THAT THE AGENCY CAN MOVE BEYOND ROUND-UP AND LONG-TERM PENNING) AND TO PROHIBIT HUMAN CONSUMPTION OF WILD HORSES AND BURROS; TO PRESERVE FUNDING FOR USDA'S ENFORCEMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF KEY ANIMAL WELFARE LAWS INCLUDING THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT AND HORSE PROTECTION ACT; AND TO KEEP OUT HARMFUL LANGUAGE BLOCKING THE U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE FROM CRACKING DOWN ON THE ILLICIT IVORY TRADE. FEDERAL AFFAIRS WORKED IN SUPPORT OF BILLS INCLUDING THE VETERINARY MEDICINE MOBILITY ACT (H.R.1528/S.950), THE MULTINATIONAL SPECIES CONSERVATION FUNDS SEMIPOSTAL STAMP REAUTHORIZATION ACT (H.R.262/S.231), THE PET AND WOMEN SAFETY ACT (H.R.5267), HUMANE COSMETICS ACT (H.R.4148), THE EGG PRODUCTS INSPECTION ACT AMENDMENTS (H.R.1731/S.820), THE PREVENT ALL SORING TACTICS ACT (H.R.1518/S.1406), THE SAFEGUARD AMERICAN FOOD EXPORTS (SAFE) ACT (H.R.1094/S.541), THE CAPTIVE PRIMATE SAFETY ACT (H.R.2856/S.1463), THE BIG CATS AND PUBLIC SAFETY PROTECTION ACT (H.R.1998/S.1381), AND THE TARGETED USE OF SANCTIONS FOR KILLING ELEPHANTS IN THEIR RANGE ACT (H.R.5454). FEDERAL AFFAIRS OPPOSED HARMFUL BILLS SUCH AS THE BIPARTISAN SPORTSMEN'S ACT (H.R.3590/S.2363), WHICH WOULD HAVE OPENED SENSITIVE FEDERAL LANDS TO HUNTING, STRIPPED THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) OF ITS ABILITY TO MAKE SCIENCE-BASED DECISIONS REGARDING THE USE OF LEAD AMMUNITION, AND CREATED A CONGRESSIONAL CARVE- OUT TO ALLOW HUNTERS TO IMPORT SPORT-HUNTED TROPHIES OF THREATENED POLAR BEARS. FEDERAL AFFAIRS ADVANCED REGULATORY ACTIONS ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL BY WORKING TO SUPPORT USDA REGULATIONS IMPLEMENTING THE 2008 BAN ON PUPPY IMPORTS, STOPPING LINE SPEEDS FROM INCREASING AT POULTRY SLAUGHTER PLANTS, CLOSING A LOOPHOLE IN FEDERAL REGULATIONS ALLOWING DOWNER CALVES (THOSE TOO SICK, INJURED, OR WEAK TO STAND) TO BE SLAUGHTERED FOR FOOD INSTEAD OF HUMANELY EUTHANIZED, STOPPING THE USE OF ANIMALS IN A VARIETY OF MEDICAL TRAINING PROGRAMS, AND DISCONTINUING FUNDING RESEARCH INVOLVING DOGS FROM RANDOM SOURCE CLASS B DEALERS. FEDERAL AFFAIRS WORKED TO SUPPORT THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF INTERIOR REGULATIONS TO BAN IMPORTATION OF FOUR LARGE CONSTRICTOR SNAKE SPECIES, TO SUSPEND IMPORTATION OF SPORT-HUNTED AFRICAN ELEPHANT TROPHIES TAKEN IN TANZANIA AND ZIMBABWE, TO RELEASE A PROPOSED RULE ON THE COMMERCIAL TRADE OF IVORY IN THE U.S, TO LIST THE SOUTHERN WHITE RHINO AS THREATENED UNDER THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT (ESA), AND TO INCREASE (INSTEAD OF DECREASE) PROTECTIONS FOR MANATEES UNDER THE ESA. FEDERAL AFFAIRS SUPPORTED THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION'S EFFORTS TO EXPAND REQUIREMENTS THAT AIR CARRIERS REPORT INCIDENTS INVOLVING THE LOSS, INJURY, OR DEATH OF AN ANIMAL DURING AIR TRANSPORT. FEDERAL AFFAIRS SUPPORTED THE NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICES' EFFORT TO RESTRICT FISHING GEAR HARMFUL TO ENDANGERED RIGHT WHALES, TO INCLUDE CAPTIVE INDIVIDUALS WITHIN THE ESA LISTING OF SOUTHERN RESIDENT KILLER WHALES, AND TO COMBAT SHARK FINNING. THIS SECTION ALSO SUPPORTED THE EPA'S WORK TO END THE SALE OF CERTAIN RODENTICIDES ALREADY BANNED BY THE AGENCY.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4A (5 OF 5) INVESTIGATIONS CONSISTENT WITH ITS FOUNDERS' VISION, THE HSUS CONDUCTS UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATIONS INTO ANIMAL CRUELTY. IN 2014, THE HSUS INVESTIGATED VIRGINIA PET STORES AND THE ORIGINS OF THE PUPPIES THEY SELL, USING THE EVIDENCE TO POINT OUT THE HUGE DISPARITY IN WHAT CONSUMERS ARE TOLD BY PET STORES, AND TO UNDERSCORE THE TRUTH, WHICH IS THAT THE MAJORITY OF PUPPIES IN VIRGINIA PET STORES ARE FROM PUPPY MILLS. HSUS INVESTIGATORS WENT BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE NATURAL BRIDGE ZOO IN VIRGINIA AND TIGER SAFARI IN OKLAHOMA, TWO ROADSIDE ZOOS WITH HISTORIES OF VIOLATING THE MINIMUM STANDARDS OF THE FEDERAL ANIMAL WELFARE ACT. BOTH FACILITIES ALLOW UNFETTERED BREEDING OF LARGE EXOTIC CATS - MOSTLY TIGERS - FOR PUBLIC PHOTO SHOOTS, CONTRIBUTING TO THE ALREADY DIRE SITUATION WITH SURPLUS BIG CATS IN THE U.S. AS A RESULT OF THESE INVESTIGATIONS, THE HSUS FILED AN ADDENDUM TO ITS PETITION TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PROHIBIT SUCH PUBLIC CONTACT AND BOTH FACILITIES ARE UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE USDA. THE HSUS CONDUCTED THE FIRST-EVER INVESTIGATION INTO THE SLAUGHTER OF SPENT HENS AT BUTTERFIELD IN MINNESOTA. ALTHOUGH BIRDS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE HUMANE METHODS OF SLAUGHTER ACT, THE USDA'S FOOD SAFETY INSPECTION SERVICE FOUND THAT OUR EVIDENCE WAS ACCURATE - FULLY CONSCIOUS HENS WERE GOING INTO THE SCALD TANKS AND SUFFERING GRUESOME DEATHS. THE FSIS DIVISION FILED A REPORT OF IMPROVEMENTS THAT NEED TO BE MADE AND BUTTERFIELD HAS AGREED TO IMPLEMENT THE CHANGES. THE HSUS INVESTIGATED THE USE OF GESTATION CRATES ON A KENTUCKY SOW FARM CALLED IRON MAIDEN WHERE PIGLETS DYING FROM THE HIGHLY INFECTIOUS PORCINE EPIDEMIC DIARRHEAL VIRUS WERE BEING GROUND UP AND FED BACK TO THEIR MOTHERS IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE SPREAD OF DISEASE WHILE BIOSECURITY MEASURES WERE IGNORED. VIDEO THE HSUS PRODUCES VIDEOS TIED TO ITS MAJOR CAMPAIGNS AND ACTIVITIES. THE COMBINED NUMBER OF VIDEOS VIEWED (YOUTUBE AND HSUS WEBSITE) FOR 2014 WAS OVER 13.7 MILLION. ONLINE COMMUNICATIONS THE HSUS USES ONLINE MEDIA TO REACH ITS SUPPORTERS AND MEMBERS, AND SENDS THOUSANDS OF EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS TO ITS CONSTITUENTS APPRISING THEM OF PROGRESS IN ITS WORK. VOLUNTEER OUTREACH THE HSUS VOLUNTEER OUTREACH DEPARTMENT STANDS AT THE HEART OF THE HSUS'S EFFORTS TO PROMOTE ANIMAL WELFARE VOLUNTEERISM IN GENERAL AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENGAGEMENT WITH THE HSUS AND ITS AFFILIATES IN PARTICULAR, VIA EMERGENCY RESPONSE DEPLOYMENT, ANIMAL CARE, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, MEDIA AND COMMUNICATIONS, INTERNSHIPS, AND CITIZEN ADVOCACY. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES SUPPORTERS WITH SUGGESTIONS FOR VOLUNTEERISM AND HELPS LINK THEM TO SPECIFIC CHANNELS WHERE VOLUNTEER SERVICE IS NEEDED. VOLUNTEER OUTREACH BUILT AND MANAGES A VOLUNTEER MANAGEMENT AND GRASSROOTS DATABASE TO CAPTURE SUPPORTERS' INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES, AND ENGAGE THEM FURTHER IN OUR WORK. IN 2014, THE DEPARTMENT SUPPORTED THE INVOLVEMENT OF 2943 VOLUNTEERS WHO PERFORMED NEARLY 158,000 HOURS OF SERVICE, PLUS AN ADDITIONAL 157 INTERNS WHO WORKED OVER 49,000 HOURS ON BEHALF OF THE HSUS AND ITS AFFILIATES. THE PROGRAM HAS BOLSTERED OR DEVELOPED THE ENGAGEMENT OF VOLUNTEERS AND INTERNS IN NEARLY 80 DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS AND PROGRAMS ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION AND PROVIDES VOLUNTEER MANAGEMENT TRAINING AND RESOURCES TO MANAGERS OF VOLUNTEERS ACROSS THE ANIMAL PROTECTION FIELD.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4B (2 OF 5) EQUINE PROTECTION THE EQUINE PROTECTION PROGRAM EDUCATES THE PUBLIC ABOUT RESPONSIBLE HORSE OWNERSHIP AND CARE; CONFRONTS CRUELTY, NEGLECT AND OTHER FORMS OF MISTREATMENT OF HORSES; OPPOSES HORSE SORING IN THE TENNESSEE WALKING HORSE INDUSTRY; CAMPAIGNS AGAINST HORSE SLAUGHTER AND THE SHIPMENT OF AMERICAN HORSES TO SLAUGHTER PLANTS ELSEWHERE; ADVOCATES FOR THE PROHIBITION OF RACE-DAY MEDICATIONS, AND SUPPORTS THE PROFESSIONALIZATION OF HORSE RESCUE IN THE UNITED STATES THROUGH A NETWORK OF EQUINE SANCTUARIES AND OTHER MEANS. IN 2014, THE HSUS'S CAMPAIGN TO HALT THE CRUELTY OF SORING OF TENNESSEE WALKING HORSES CONTINUED TO ADVANCE. THE PREVENT ALL SORING TACTICS (PAST) ACT, LEGISLATION TO UPGRADE THE FEDERAL LAW AGAINST SORING, GATHERED SUBSTANTIAL SUPPORT WITH MORE THAN 308 HOUSE MEMBERS AND 60 SENATORS SIGNING ON TO THE BILL, AND THE USDA STEPPED UP ITS ENFORCEMENT OF THE HORSE PROTECTION ACT. THE HSUS'S EFFORTS TO STOP HORSE SLAUGHTER IN THE UNITED STATES CONTINUED AS WELL, AS THE ORGANIZATION FOUGHT OFF EFFORTS TO REOPEN HORSE SLAUGHTERHOUSES. THE HSUS WORKED HARD TO RESTORE A PROHIBITION ON FEDERAL FUNDING FOR THE INSPECTION OF HORSE SLAUGHTERHOUSES, AND TO PROHIBIT OTHER USDA EXPENDITURES FOR HORSE SLAUGHTER. THE HSUS SUPPORTED THE SAFEGUARD AMERICAN FOOD EXPORTS (SAFE) ACT, WHICH PROPOSED A BAN ON SLAUGHTER AND EXPORT OF AMERICAN HORSES FOR CONSUMPTION. WE JOINED WITH PARTNERS TO SEEK AN INJUNCTION AGAINST THE OPENING OF A HORSE SLAUGHTERHOUSE IN NEW MEXICO. THE HSUS SECURED "NO SLAUGHTER" PLEDGES FROM MORE BREEDERS, BRINGING THE TOTAL NUMBER OF BREEDERS WHO HAVE MADE THE COMMITMENT IN THE LAST TWO YEARS TO 1,100. THE SECTION EXTENDED ITS EFFORTS TO PROMOTE MORE HUMANE MANAGEMENT OF WILD HORSES AND BURROS ON PUBLIC LANDS. THE HSUS IS WORKING TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF BURROS ADOPTED FROM BLM HOLDING FACILITIES AND PROMOTE GREATER PROTECTIONS FOR THE ANIMALS. WORKING WITH PARTNERS, THE HSUS PLACED MORE THAN 200 BURROS IN NEW HOMES OR SANCTUARIES. THE HSUS ALSO STYMIED THREE ATTEMPTS IN TENNESSEE TO PROHIBIT THE KIND OF INVESTIGATION THAT LED TO THE HISTORIC CASE IT BUILT AGAINST WALKING HORSE TRAINER JACKIE MCCONNELL IN 2011.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4B (3 OF 5) ANIMAL RESEARCH ISSUES THE ANIMAL RESEARCH ISSUES DEPARTMENT WORKS TO MINIMIZE AND TO END HARM TO ANIMALS IN RESEARCH, TESTING, AND EDUCATION, THROUGH POLICY EFFORTS; COLLABORATION WITH SCIENTISTS AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS; AND PUBLIC AND INSTITUTIONAL OUTREACH. THE PROTECTION AND RETIREMENT OF CHIMPANZEES ONCE USED IN RESEARCH IS A PRIORITY. IN 2014, MERCK, ALONG WITH MORE THAN TWO DOZEN OTHER PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES, COMMITTED TO ENDING THE USE OF CHIMPANZEES. THE SAME YEAR, THE LAST GOVERNMENT-OWNED CHIMPANZEES FROM NEW IBERIA RESEARCH CENTER, WHERE THE HSUS CONDUCTED AN UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATION IN 2009, WERE RETIRED TO THE NATIONAL CHIMPANZEE SANCTUARY, CHIMP HAVEN. THE HSUS CONTINUED TO WORK WITH THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH) ON A PLAN TO RETIRE ADDITIONAL CHIMPANZEES AFTER THE AGENCY ANNOUNCED THAT IT WOULD RETIRE NEARLY 90% OF CHIMPANZEES OWNED BY THE GOVERNMENT. NIH ALSO COMMITTED TO RESTRICTING CHIMPANZEE RESEARCH AND APPROVED NO APPLICATIONS FOR INVASIVE CHIMPANZEE GRANTS IN 2014. THE HSUS WORKS TO ENSURE THE PROPER ENFORCEMENT OF LAWS SUCH AS THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT (AWA). IN 2014, THE OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL (OIG) ANNOUNCED AUDIT FINDINGS CONCERNING USDA'S ENFORCEMENT OF THE AWA SPECIFICALLY AT RESEARCH FACILITIES. HAVING LEARNED OF THE PLANNED AUDIT IN 2011, THE HSUS SUBMITTED EVIDENCE TO OIG THAT DEMONSTRATED MULTIPLE AREAS OF CONCERN, PARTICULARLY THE LONG-STANDING PROBLEM OF LOW PENALTIES. THE OIG AUDIT CONCLUSIONS WERE IN LINE WITH THE CONCERNS THE HSUS EXPRESSED, AND AS A RESULT, MULTIPLE CHANGES ARE UNDERWAY, INCLUDING STRONG PENALTIES AGAINST INSTITUTIONS THAT VIOLATE THE AWA. IN THE PRODUCT TESTING ARENA, THE HSUS LED WORK ON FEDERAL LEGISLATION, THE HUMANE COSMETICS ACT, WHICH WOULD PROHIBIT TESTING OF COSMETICS ON ANIMALS IN THE U.S. AND THE SALE OF COSMETICS THAT INVOLVED ANIMAL TESTING, EVEN IF CONDUCTED OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. IN EARLY 2014, FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF A 2013 HSUS UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATION OF LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS AT GEORGIA REGENTS UNIVERSITY IN AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, THE SCHOOL ENDED THE PURCHASE OF DOGS FROM CLASS B DEALERS, DEALERS THAT COLLECT DOGS AND CATS FROM RANDOM SOURCES AND RE-SELL THEM FOR EXPERIMENTATION. THE DOGS IN THE EXPERIMENTS UNDERWENT PAINFUL DENTAL SURGERY -- NO ADDITIONAL DOGS EXPERIENCED THIS IN 2014. 2014 WAS ALSO THE YEAR IN WHICH THE NIH STOPPED FUNDING RESEARCH THAT INVOLVES CLASS B DOGS, AFTER A LONGSTANDING EFFORT BY THE HSUS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. IN FURTHER PURSUIT OF ITS WORK TO EXPOSE THE PLIGHT OF PRIMATES IN LABORATORIES, THE HSUS RELEASED THE RESULTS OF AN UNDERCOVER INVESTIGATION AT TEXAS BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTES, REVEALING DISTRESS, WOUNDING, OVERCROWDING, POOR VETERINARY CARE AND DEATHS AT THIS FACILITY THAT HOUSES THOUSANDS OF PRIMATES FOR BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH. THE USDA CITED THE FACILITY FOR SERIOUS VIOLATIONS OF THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT, AND ENFORCEMENT ACTION IS PENDING. IN THE TOXICITY TESTING ARENA, THE HSUS LED WORKSHOPS TO ADDRESS SCIENTIFIC GAPS IN THE ARENA OF NON-ANIMAL ALTERNATIVES DEVELOPMENT, PUBLISHED PAPERS IN THE PEER-REVIEWED LITERATURE, AND PARTICIPATED ON COMMITTEES WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION FOR ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT (OECD). OECD RELEASED MULTIPLE GUIDELINES ON NON-ANIMAL ALTERNATIVES THAT WILL SPARE ANIMALS FROM SUFFERING INVOLVED WITH BEING SUBJECTED TO TOXICITY TESTING. THE CREDIBILITY OF THE HSUS IN THIS ARENA RESULTED IN AN INVITATION TO TESTIFY IN CONGRESS IN REGARDS TO THE TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT, SPECIFICALLY IN REGARDS TO LEGISLATIVE LANGUAGE TO COMPEL THE USE OF NON-ANIMAL ALTERNATIVES FOR TOXICITY TESTING. THE HSUS CONTINUED TO LEAD THE HUMAN TOXICOLOGY PROJECT CONSORTIUM (WHOSE PARTICIPANTS INCLUDE PROMINENT MULTI-NATIONAL CORPORATIONS), WHICH WORKS TO IDENTIFY SCIENTIFIC OPPORTUNITIES AND TO SECURE SIGNIFICANT FUNDING, AS WELL AS EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT NON-ANIMAL ALTERNATIVES THROUGH ITS WEBSITE. THE HSUS COMMUNICATES WITH THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY THROUGH ALTTOX.ORG, A WEBSITE THAT NOT ONLY PROVIDES SCIENTIFIC AND POLICY UPDATES, BUT ENCOURAGES INFORMATION EXCHANGE AMONG STAKEHOLDERS. ALTTOX.ORG WAS REDESIGNED IN 2014, MAKING THE SITE EASIER TO NAVIGATE AND ATTRACTING NEW USERS. THE HSUS ALSO FURTHER ADVANCED ITS PAIN AND DISTRESS INITIATIVE TO END ALL PAIN AND DISTRESS IN ANIMALS IN RESEARCH BY THE YEAR 2020, CHALLENGING UNIVERSITIES CONDUCTING ANIMAL RESEARCH TO ADOPT POLICIES PROHIBITING SEVERE SUFFERING THROUGH PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT, MEDIA PRESSURE, AND THE HIGHLIGHTING OF VIOLATIONS OF ANIMAL RESEARCH POLICIES.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B (CONT.)	CONTINUED FROM PART III, LINE 4B (4 OF 5) WILDLIFE THE HSUS WILDLIFE PROTECTION SECTION IS A LEADER IN EFFORTS TO DEFEND AND ASSIST WILD ANIMALS, WHETHER IT COMES TO BASIC CRUELTY; THE FATE OF CHARISMATIC MEGAFAUNA; WILDLIFE CONFLICT RESOLUTION; URBAN WILDLIFE ISSUES, HUMANE CONSERVATION AND WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT; LAND ACQUISITION AND PRESERVATION; EXOTIC PET OWNERSHIP; INVASIVE SPECIES; AND CLIMATE CHANGE AND ASSOCIATED ANTHROPOGENIC IMPACTS. THE SECTION PROMOTES HUMANE WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND THOSE THAT PRESERVE BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY; ADVOCATES FOR RESPONSIBLE, HUMANE APPROACHES TO THE CONSERVATION OF THREATENED, ENDANGERED, AND OTHER SPECIES; PROMOTES THE PROTECTION AND HUMANE TREATMENT OF ALL WILDLIFE, CAPTIVE AND FREE; SUPPORTS THE PROTECTION OF QUALITY WILDLIFE HABITAT; AND SEEKS TO FOSTER RESPECT AND APPRECIATION FOR WILD ANIMALS AND NATURE. THE SECTION PROVIDES SCIENTIFIC AND POLICY ANALYSES CONCERNING WILDLIFE AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLANS AND PREDATOR AND OTHER WILDLIFE DAMAGE CONTROL INITIATIVES; FOCUSES ON MISTREATMENT OF WILD ANIMALS IN CAPTIVE SETTINGS, INCLUDING ZOOS, ROADSIDE EXHIBITS, AND AQUARIA, AUCTIONS, THE EXOTIC MEAT INDUSTRY, CANNED HUNTS, AND OTHER SITUATIONS; CAMPAIGNS AGAINST TRAPPING AND CALLOUS KILLING OF ANIMALS FOR RECREATIONAL AND COMMERCIAL PURPOSES; PROMOTES THE IMPLEMENTATION OF WILDLIFE CONTRACEPTION TECHNIQUES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE SPECIES; CARRIES OUT INITIATIVES TO PROTECT WHALES AND OTHER MARINE MAMMALS; DISCOURAGES THE KEEPING OF WILD ANIMALS AS PETS; AND WORKS TOWARD SOLUTIONS FOR THE CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH FREE-ROAMING CAT POPULATIONS. IN ADDITION, THE SECTION SEEKS TO HARMONIZE HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS WITH WILD ANIMALS LIVING IN OR NEAR HUMAN COMMUNITIES, HELPING PEOPLE TO ADDRESS CONFLICTS THROUGH HUMANE, EFFECTIVE APPROACHES. IT ALSO WORKS ON PHEASANT STOCKING, FOX PENNING, DOVE SHOOTING, RATTLESNAKE ROUNDUPS, FISHERIES, TROPHY HUNTING, AND INTERNET HUNTING. THE HSUS SUCCESSFULLY STOPPED THE TROPHY HUNTING OF WOLVES FOR THE 2014 SEASON IN MICHIGAN THROUGH BALLOT VICTORIES ON PROPOSALS 1 AND 2. WOLVES CAME OFF THE HUNTING AND TRAPPING MENU IN WYOMING, AND BACK ON THE FEDERAL ENDANGERED SPECIES LIST, THANKS TO A RULING BY A U.S. DISTRICT COURT JUDGE IN LAWSUITS FILED BY THE HSUS AND SEVERAL OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. VIRGINIA PASSED A LAW THAT WILL PHASE OUT EXISTING FOX PENS, AND PROHIBIT ANY NEW PENS FROM OPENING. THE HSUS SUCCESSFULLY STOPPED THE EXPANSION OF A SPRING BEAR HUNT IN SOUTHEAST OREGON. IN INDIANA, THE HSUS HELPED TO STOP A BILL THAT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED CAPTIVE HUNTS FOR CERVIDS AND IN MISSOURI, IT WORKED TO DEFEAT A VETO OVERRIDE THAT WOULD HAVE RECLASSIFIED CAPTIVE CERVIDS AS LIVESTOCK AND TRANSFERRED AUTHORITY TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. AFTER MUCH PRESSURE FROM THE HSUS, RECKITT BENCKISER, MAKER OF D-CON, AND THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) ANNOUNCED THAT RECKITT BENCKISER WOULD STOP FIGHTING EPA ON THE SECOND GENERATION ANTICOAGULANT RODENTICIDES (SGAR) CANCELLATION AND WILL CEASE MAKING NON-COMPLIANT PRODUCTS. WEST VIRGINIA PASSED A LAW TO PROHIBIT THE PRIVATE POSSESSION OF DANGEROUS WILD ANIMALS. WITH PASSAGE OF THIS BILL, ONLY FIVE STATES - ALABAMA, NEVADA, NORTH CAROLINA, SOUTH CAROLINA, AND WISCONSIN - HAVE NO LAWS ON THE KEEPING OF EXOTIC ANIMALS AS PETS. RHODE ISLAND PASSED A RESOLUTION URGING CIRCUSES NOT TO USE THE BULL HOOK ON ELEPHANTS. THE HSUS FILED A FEDERAL PETITION TO PROHIBIT THE USE OF LEAD AMMUNITION ON FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE AND NATIONAL PARK SERVICE LANDS. OUR PETITIONERS INCLUDE 12 ANIMAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS AND FOUR SPORTSMEN. WE LAUNCHED OUR NATIONAL LEAD-FREE WILDLIFE ADVISORY COUNCIL WITH FIVE MEMBERS INCLUDING TWO SCIENTISTS, TWO SPORTSMEN, AND A WILDLIFE REHABILITATOR. THE HSUS ALSO FILED A LEGAL PETITION WITH THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ASKING THE AGENCY TO TAKE AGGRESSIVE ENFORCEMENT ACTION AGAINST ONLINE CLOTHING RETAILER DRJAYS.COM OVER RACCOON DOG AND RABBIT FUR SOLD AS "FAUX." DRJAYS.COM WAS NAMED IN PREVIOUS HSUS PETITIONS IN 2008 AND AGAIN IN 2011. THE HSUS ONCE AGAIN BROUGHT PUBLIC ATTENTION TO KOHL'S FOR ADVERTISING RACCOON DOG FUR AS "FAUX FUR" ON A MEN'S PARKA. CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD'S ORDINANCE BANNING THE SALE OF FUR APPAREL IN CITY LIMITS WAS UPHELD; THE HSUS; FILED AN AMICUS BRIEF IN SUPPORT. MASSACHUSETTS PASSED A BILL TO BAN SHARK FINS. IN MARCH, A FEDERAL COURT GRANTED THE HSUS'S MOTION TO DISMISS A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING CALIFORNIA'S RECENTLY-ENACTED BAN ON THE SALE OF SHARK FIN PRODUCTS. IN 2014, AFTER A LONG HSUS-LED INITIATIVE, THE CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION VOTED UNANIMOUSLY TO CLOSE THE CHILDREN'S POOL BEACH IN LA JOLLA TO PREVENT HARASSMENT AND HARM TO MOTHER SEALS AND THEIR NEWBORNS DURING THE PUPPING SEASON FROM JANUARY THROUGH MAY. IN RESPONSE TO HSUS LITIGATION, THE NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE (NMFS) AGREED TO PROTECT MORE HABITAT FOR CRITICALLY ENDANGERED NORTH ATLANTIC RIGHT WHALES. IN 2009, A COALITION OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ANIMAL PROTECTION GROUPS (INCLUDING THE HSUS) FORMALLY PETITIONED THE NMFS TO INCLUDE MORE OF THE WHALES' NURSERY AND BREEDING AND FEEDING GROUNDS IN THE AREA DESIGNATED AS THEIR CRITICAL HABITAT. THE AGENCY'S AGREEMENT SETS ENFORCEABLE DEADLINES FOR DESIGNATING ADDITIONAL PROTECTED AREAS. THE HSUS AND THE NATURAL RESOURCES DEFENSE COUNCIL WON A LAWSUIT CHALLENGING APPROVAL OF THE NAVY'S "LOW-FREQUENCY ACTIVE" SONAR TRAINING PROGRAM IN THE PACIFIC OCEAN. THE HSUS WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT PROVIDED HANDS-ON RESCUE/TRANSPORT/REHABILITATION TO MORE THAN 4,700 WILD ANIMALS IN 2014. THIS INCLUDED OVER 300 PRAIRIE DOGS, MORE THAN 650 GOPHER TORTOISES, 67 DESERT TORTOISES; 260 BURROS, COUNTLESS DEER, COYOTES, DUCKS, SNAKES, AND ORPHANED BABY WILDLIFE AND OVER 2,400 ANIMALS RESCUED BY OUR HUMANE WILDLIFE SERVICES PROGRAM. THE HSUS ALSO LAUNCHED A HUMANE WILDLIFE SERVICES PROGRAM AT THE SOUTH FLORIDA WILDLIFE CENTER, AND ASSISTED MORE THAN 400 COMMUNITIES NATIONWIDE ON HOW TO COEXIST WITH WILD NEIGHBORS, INCLUDING COYOTES, GEESE, BEAVERS, AND DEER. THE CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS AND THE VILLAGE OF RIVERSIDE, ILLINOIS CREATED HUMANE COYOTE MANAGEMENT POLICIES FOR SOLVING CONFLICTS AMONG PEOPLE, PETS AND COYOTES WITHIN THESE CITIES. THE HSUS WORKED WITH THESE COMMUNITIES TO DEVELOP THESE POLICIES, WHICH EMPHASIZE COEXISTENCE AND TOLERANCE FOR COYOTES, RATHER THAN CRUEL AND INEFFECTIVE TRAPPING AND KILLING PROGRAMS. LAST FALL THE DESERT TORTOISE CONSERVATION CENTER (DTCC), LOCATED NEAR LAS VEGAS AND OPERATED BY THE UNITED STATES FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE, ANNOUNCED IT WAS CLOSING DOWN AND WOULD HAVE TO EUTHANIZE HUNDREDS OF THE TORTOISES AT THE FACILITY BECAUSE THEY WERE NON-RELEASABLE. DUE TO PUBLIC PRESSURE FROM THE HSUS THE CENTER CHOSE NOT TO EUTHANIZE THE ANIMALS, BUT TO WORK TO RELEASE AS MANY AS POSSIBLE, AND TO PARTNER WITH THE HSUS IN PLACING THE NON-RELEASABLE TORTOISES. THE HSUS SUCCESSFULLY PLACED THE 67 NON-RELEASABLE DESERT TORTOISES AT THREE SANCTUARIES/FACILITIES. THE HSUS LAUNCHED A FIVE-YEAR RESEARCH PROJECT AT THE VILLAGE OF HASTINGS-ON-HUDSON IN NEW YORK TO HUMANELY STABILIZE AND SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE LOCAL DEER POPULATION OVER TIME THROUGH THE USE OF THE IMMUNOCONTRACEPTION VACCINE PORCINE ZONA PELLUCIDA (PZP). WE ALSO SUPPORTED THE FIRST DEER SURGICAL STERILIZATION PROJECT EVER APPROVED BY THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF GAME & INLAND FISHERIES AND CONDUCTED IT IN FAIRFAX CITY, VA. THE HSUS IS ACTIVELY PROMOTING SURGICAL STERILIZATION AS WELL AS IMMUNOCONTRACEPTION AS NON-LETHAL ALTERNATIVES TO CRUEL, INEFFECTIVE LETHAL MANAGEMENT METHODS AND PRESENTS THESE ALTERNATIVES TO SELECT TOWNS AS VIABLE DEER MANAGEMENT TOOLS.

AFFILIATE DESCRIPTIONS	(PART 1 OF 2) THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES AND AFFILIATES (COLLECTIVELY, THE SOCIETY) IS A NOT-FOR PROFIT ORGANIZATION WHOSE PRIMARY PURPOSE IS THE WORLDWIDE ADVANCEMENT OF HUMANE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS THROUGH PUBLIC EDUCATION AND AWARENESS PROGRAMS. THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA, PRESENTED IN THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE HSUS, INCLUDES THE OPERATIONS OF THE HSUS AND THE FOLLOWING ENTITIES WHOSE MISSIONS ARE DESCRIBED BELOW: THE HUMANE SOCIETY WILDLIFE LAND TRUST EIN # 52-1808517 (HSUSWLT), FOUNDED IN 1993, CELEBRATES AND PROTECTS WILD ANIMALS BY CREATING AND MANAGING PERMANENT SANCTUARIES, BY PRESERVING AND ENHANCING NATURAL HABITAT, AND BY CONFRONTING CRUELTY. THE HSUSWLT PROTECTS NATURAL HABITAT IN PERPETUITY AND SEEKS TO ENSURE THAT ANIMALS LIVING ON PROTECTED LANDS ARE NOT HUNTED, TRAPPED, OR FISHED, WORKING ON ITS OWN OR IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. THE TRUST MAINTAINS A PORTFOLIO OF MORE THAN 112 PERMANENT WILDLIFE SANCTUARIES AND HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION OF MORE THAN TWO MILLION ACRES OF HABITAT IN NEARLY 40 STATES AND SEVEN COUNTRIES, SANCTUARIES WHERE RECREATIONAL AND COMMERCIAL HUNTING -- AND A VARIETY OF PRACTICES THREATENING TO ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITAT -- WILL ALWAYS BE PROHIBITED. STAFF MEMBERS WORK WITH LANDOWNERS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING PERMANENT PROTECTION FOR THEIR PROPERTIES AND THE WILDLIFE WHO CALL IT HOME. SOMETIMES THAT INVOLVES TRANSFERRING THE LAND TO THE TRUST FOR PROTECTION. AT OTHER TIMES, IT INVOLVES PERMANENT CONSERVATION AGREEMENTS, OR CONSERVATION EASEMENTS, WHICH ESTABLISH RESTRICTIONS ON HOW THE LAND CAN BE USED TO ENSURE THAT IT WILL ALWAYS BE A SAFE HOME FOR WILDLIFE. THE TRUST WORKS IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES AND ABROAD TO PROMOTE ITS VALUES CONCERNING THE PROTECTION OF HABITAT AND WILDLIFE. THESE PARTNERSHIP EFFORTS TAKE THE FORM OF ACTIVE CONSULTATION BY TRUST STAFF AS WELL AS LIMITED FINANCIAL PARTICIPATION FOR PROPERTY ACQUISITION, MAINTENANCE, ENHANCEMENT, AND PROTECTION. IN 2014, THE TRUST WAS INVOLVED IN 30 SUCH PROJECTS, INVOLVING SOME TWO MILLION ACRES IN TOTAL. THE FUND FOR ANIMALS EIN #13-6218740 (THE FUND), SINCE 2005, IS THE ENTITY RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST HSUS ANIMAL CARE FACILITIES INCLUDING, FOR 2014, THE CLEVELAND AMORY BLACK BEAUTY RANCH (TX), THE CAPE WILDLIFE CENTER (MA), THE DUCHESS SANCTUARY (OR), AND THE FUND FOR ANIMALS WILDLIFE CENTER (CA). THESE FACILITIES FOCUS ON REHABILITATION AND RELEASE, AND OTHER HANDS-ON CARE AND RESCUE OF INJURED, ORPHANED, AND ABANDONED ANIMALS, AS WELL AS PROMOTING THE HUMANE TREATMENT OF ALL ANIMALS AND THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY THROUGH EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY. THE CLEVELAND AMORY BLACK BEAUTY RANCH IN MURCHISON, TEXAS IS A 1,437-ACRE SANCTUARY FOR APPROXIMATELY 1,000 ANIMALS YEAR ROUND, REPRESENTING 42 SPECIES, RESCUED FROM ABUSE OR ABANDONMENT. RESCUED ANIMAL RESIDENTS INCLUDE EXOTIC AS WELL AS DOMESTIC SPECIES, INCLUDING HORSES AND BURROS, CATTLE AND BUFFALO, DEER, PIGS, TORTOISE, TIGERS, CHIMPANZEES, AND OTHER PRIMATE SPECIES. IN 2011, THE DORIS DAY EQUINE CENTER OPENED AT BLACK BEAUTY RANCH, TO PROVIDE CARE AND REHABILITATION FOR RESCUED HORSES AND TRAIN THEM FOR PLACEMENT AND ADOPTION WITH NEW FAMILIES. THE CAPE WILDLIFE CENTER IN BARNSTABLE, MASSACHUSETTS IS A FIVE-ACRE FACILITY AND MODEL REHABILITATION PROGRAM THAT WORKS TO REHABILITATE NATIVE AND TRANSITORY WILDLIFE, PROVIDING MEDICAL AND REHABILITATIVE TREATMENT TO INJURED AND ORPHANED ANIMALS AND RELEASING THEM BACK INTO THE WILD. THE CAPE WILDLIFE CENTER IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE CAPE COD COMMUNITY, ADVISING PEOPLE ON HUMANE SOLUTIONS TO HUMAN-WILDLIFE CONFLICTS, WHILE SUPPORTING PUBLIC POLICIES THAT BENEFIT WILD ANIMALS AND THEIR HABITATS. THE CENTER'S EXTERNSHIP PROGRAM DRAWS VETERINARY TECHNICIANS, PRE-VETERINARY UNDERGRADUATE MAJORS, AND VETERINARY STUDENTS AND CREDENTIALED VETERINARIANS FROM ACROSS THE U.S. AND ABROAD. IN 2014, MORE THAN 1,820 ANIMALS RECEIVED CARE AND SEVERAL DOZEN PROFESSIONAL VISITORS STUDIED WILDLIFE REHABILITATION, VETERINARY CARE, AND CONSERVATION MEDICINE AT THE CENTER. THE CENTER ALSO ASSISTED HUNDREDS MORE ANIMALS THROUGH TELEPHONE AND IN-PERSON CONSULTATIONS WITH THE PUBLIC, ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS, VETERINARIANS AND OTHERS WHO FOUND ABANDONED/INJURED ANIMALS AND SOUGHT HELP. THE 1,120-ACRE DUCHESS SANCTUARY IN OAKLAND, OREGON CARES FOR ABOUT 200 FORMERLY ABUSED, ABANDONED, AND NEGLECTED HORSES. MARES RESCUED FROM THE PREGNANT MARE URINE (PMU) INDUSTRY AND THEIR OFFSPRING MAKE UP THE MAJORITY OF THE HERD AT THE SANCTUARY. THE FUND FOR ANIMALS WILDLIFE CENTER IN RAMONA, CALIFORNIA IS A 13-ACRE FACILITY WHICH PROVIDES MEDICAL TREATMENT, CARE, AND REHABILITATION OF NATIVE WILDLIFE, AND RELEASES THEM BACK INTO THE WILD. IN 2014, THE CENTER MODIFIED AN OUTDOOR RECOVERY HABITAT TO EXPAND ITS CAPACITY TO PROVIDE CARE AND TREATMENT FOR NATIVE WILDLIFE. THE CENTER FOCUSES PRIMARILY ON THE REHABILITATION AND RELEASE OF PREDATOR SPECIES NATIVE TO CALIFORNIA, SUCH AS SKUNKS, COYOTES, BOBCATS, EAGLES, HAWKS, AND OWLS. IN 2014, 550 ANIMALS RECEIVED CARE AND TREATMENT. PRESENTLY, 15 NON-RELEASABLE OR NON-NATIVE ANIMALS RESCUED FROM THE EXOTIC PET TRADE AND CRUELTY CASES LIVE AT THE CENTER, INCLUDING AN AFRICAN LION, PYGMY HIPPO, AND MOUNTAIN LION, ALL OF WHOM ONCE LANGUISHED WITH PRIVATE OWNERS. IN ADDITION, THE CENTER SERVES AS A SHELTER FOR A COLONY OF 40 FERAL CATS RESCUED FROM NEARBY SAN NICOLAS ISLAND. IN 2014, AT THE REQUEST OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, THE CENTER BEGAN TO ACCEPT A NEW SPECIES, BLACK BEARS, FOR REHABILITATION. DORIS DAY ANIMAL LEAGUE EIN# 95-4117651 (DDAL) THE DORIS DAY ANIMAL LEAGUE, FOUNDED IN 1987 BY THE LEGENDARY ACTRESS AND ANIMAL ADVOCATE, IS A NONPROFIT, NATIONAL, CITIZEN'S LOBBYING ORGANIZATION WORKING FOR THE HUMANE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, DDAL, A 501(C)(4) ENTITY, HAS BEEN A LEADER ON ANIMAL WELFARE LEGISLATION AND PUBLIC POLICY. DDAL WORKS WITH THE U.S. CONGRESS, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS, AND OTHER POLICY STAKEHOLDERS TO SECURE THE PASSAGE OF NEW LAWS AND THE ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING LAWS THAT REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE SUFFERING OF ANIMALS. IN 2014, DDAL CONTINUED ITS EFFORTS TO GAIN SUPPORT FOR NON-ANIMAL METHODS OF RESEARCH WITHIN RELEVANT FEDERAL AGENCIES SUCH AS THE EPA AND NIH AND WITHIN INTERNATIONAL BODIES CHARGED WITH REGULATORY RESPONSIBILITY FOR PRODUCT TESTING AND SAFETY. IN 2014, AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL, DDAL SUPPORTED LANGUAGE IN THE FARM BILL MAKING IT A FEDERAL CRIME TO KNOWINGLY ATTEND OR BRING A CHILD TO AN ORGANIZED ANIMAL FIGHT AND STRIKING A PROVISION THAT WOULD HAVE NEGATED STATE LAWS PROTECTING FARM ANIMALS. DDAL HELPED TO SECURE LANGUAGE IN THE FISCAL YEAR 2015 OMNIBUS PACKAGE TO BAR THE USDA FROM FUNDING INSPECTIONS AT HORSE SLAUGHTER PLANTS, EFFECTIVELY MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO LEGALLY SLAUGHTER HORSES FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION IN THE UNITED STATES. DDAL ALSO SOUGHT TO PRIORITIZE FEDERAL FUNDING FOR NON-ANIMAL RESEARCH METHODS, AND TO PRESERVE FUNDING FOR USDA ENFORCEMENT OF AND IMPLEMENTATION OF KEY ANIMAL WELFARE LAWS INCLUDING THE ANIMAL WELFARE ACT AND HORSE PROTECTION ACT. DDAL WORKED FOR THE PASSAGE OF LEGISLATION INCLUDING THE VETERANS DOG TRAINING THERAPY ACT; THE VETERINARY MEDICINE MOBILITY ACT; THE SAFEGUARD AMERICAN FOOD EXPORTS (SAFE) ACT; THE HORSERACING INTEGRITY AND SAFETY ACT; THE PREVENT ALL SORING TACTICS (PAST) ACT; AND THE PUPPY UNIFORM PROTECTION AND SAFETY (PUPS) ACT.
AFFILIATE DESCRIPTIONS	CONTINUED FROM ABOVE (PART 2 OF 2) HUMANE SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL EIN# 52-1769464 (HSI) FOUNDED IN 1991, HSI SEEKS TO EDUCATE AUDIENCES WORLDWIDE ABOUT COMPASSION TOWARD ANIMALS, CARRY OUT DIRECT ANIMAL CARE, RESCUE, AND DISASTER RESPONSE; PROVIDE TECHNICAL AND SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT TO LOCAL PARTNERS; AND TO INCREASE THE PRIORITY GIVEN WORLDWIDE TO ANIMAL PROTECTION ISSUES BY POLICY-MAKERS, INDUSTRY, AND CIVIL SOCIETY. HSI'S CORE CAMPAIGNS FOCUS ON THE HUMANE MANAGEMENT OF STREET ANIMALS VIA STERILIZATION AND VACCINATION IN MUCH OF ASIA, LATIN AMERICA, AND SOUTH AMERICA; THE ELIMINATION OF THE DOG MEAT TRADE IN ASIA; AN END TO THE CONFINEMENT OF FARM ANIMALS IN BATTERY CAGES AND GESTATION CRATES IN INDIA, BRAZIL, MEXICO, AND ELSEWHERE; THE END OF ANIMAL TESTING FOR HUMAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AND RISK ASSESSMENT; A HALT TO THE KILLING OF SEALS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES; THE CESSATION OF SHARK FINNING AND SHARK FIN SOUP CONSUMPTION; AND THE CURTAILMENT OF MERCY RELEASE PROGRAMS THAT ENCOURAGE THE CAPTURE AND SUBSEQUENT RELEASE OF WILD ANIMALS. HSI WORKS AGGRESSIVELY TO CURB AND ELIMINATE THE ILLICIT GLOBAL WILDLIFE TRADE (VIA PARTICIPATION IN CITES AND OTHER ACTIVITIES), ADVANCES EFFORTS TO STOP COMMERCIAL WHALING (VIA THE INTERNATIONAL WHALING COMMISSION), AND SEEKS TO IMPROVE WILDLIFE PROTECTION MECHANISMS IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS.
